It will be really bad in the short term. But ironically, food is something they won't have to worry about with the Ukraine either annexed or firmly within their sphere of influence. Russia and Belarus also has all the industrial infrastructure needed to produce fertilizer. What will hurt is advanced and modern machine and industrial equipment.
Even with all the correct inputs, there are bad years. This happened every decade or so in the Soviet Union even after they stopped believing in agricultural voodoo. There were even periods when they were buying wheat from the US in exchange for security concessions.
 
So how long before the faggot jannies decide that this thread needs to be shut down under the bullshit excuse of "but the number of pages makes it impossible to moderate!!!!" Boohoohoohoohoo!! :'(

Sounds like a fucking feature. But when you're a janny in league with the Zionist Occupied Government and need to purge wrongthink, I guess it looks more like a bug. Well the only bugs here are you, jannies.

Did they ever state a set page limit?

IIRC I heard that shit starts getting really fucked around 3000.
 
Oh, what, you think wars are won by actually having weapons and soldiers and shit and occupying territory? How dreary and drab you are, old man. Don't you know wars are won by posting sassy memes on social media?
Everyone knows the Pacific War was won by the Navajo memetalkers and their dank dabbing on the Japs
 
How will this affect the average citizen?

As far as I understood, the average Russki doesn't even buy anything from the west, the vast majority of goods are either domestic, neighbours or China, all of which don't even have to trade via US dollar.
Are you serious? Prices for imported goods are bound to dollar and in Russia almost everything is imported. Some retail chains already upped their prices by 30%.
 
In the interest of discussing something interesting, how about them peace talks?

My take is that unless the Ukranians are both planning and capable of turning this into a never-ending guerilla war and spending the next 20 years playing fuck-fuck games with Russian troops until they get bored and fuck off, this may be the best negotiating hand they're going to get. I've made mention of my belief that Putin really doesn't want to make a mess in Kiev and throw away all his hard work to keep the civilian casualties low, and now that the city's encircled, he's on a timer in that regard before people start starving. The Russians are still advancing, particularly in the South, but they haven't grabbed enough land to make a credible claim for annexation or taking large swaths of the country, and Ukraine still has too many troops in the field for Putin to force demilitarization or a regime change.

If both parties are competent negotiators and manage to reach a settlement, then I'm expecting the release of the separatist-claimed territories along with a guarantee either that Ukraine will stay away from NATO or just outright neutrality, possibly balanced out by minor concessions from Russia like promises to not invade again and/or relief and reconstruction aid.
 
What's the status of Kyiv? Apparently it's holding out. Kharkiv's still apparently in question.

If I was the Ukrainian President I wouldn't meet with anyone at the Belarus border. Russians have a nasty habit of kidnapping negotiators from the other side. Maybe Helsinki, Stockholm or Geneva.
 
Best outcome would be Russia and the United States nuclear holocausting each other.
Hey, what'd I do? I live here, I don't wanna die. :(

Isn't it wonderful that you can exactly pinpoint when mutts wake up just by the lowering quality of this thread?
Yeah, you can practically set your watch by the "hurr durr dumb mutts suck amirite?" posts.

The Rittenhouse thread was going at lightspeed during the trial but the jannies let it go and cleaned up during quiet times. There was a balance between post diarrhea and jannies doing janny things.

Lurk more.
